@kmaraz/replace-svg-in-html-loader v1.1.2

replace-svg-in-html-loader

The replace-svg-in-html-loader finds SVG placeholders in HTML templates and replaces them with SVG file contents.

Getting Started

To begin, you'll need to install replace-svg-in-html-loader:

npm install --save-dev @kmaraz/replace-svg-in-html-loader

Then add the plugin to your webpack config. For example:

webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
       {
          test: /\.html$/i,
          use: [{
            loader: '@kmaraz/replace-svg-in-html-loader'
          }],
          exclude: [/node_modules/]
        }
    ],
  },
};

iconPath

You can also specify the preferred icon path:

webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.html$/i,
        use: [{
          loader: '@kmaraz/replace-svg-in-html-loader',
          options: {
            iconPath: '~assets/icons/'
          }
        }],
        exclude: [/node_modules/]
      }
    ],
  },
};

How it works?

replace-svg-in-html-loader searches for SVG icons in HTML template.

Example #1

index.html in our source.

<div>
  <!-- full path will be ~assets/icons/md-add.svg -->
  <svg class="icon-size14" icon="md-add"></svg>
</div>

index.html with replaced icons.

<div>
  <svg class="icon-size14" viewBox="659 4098.5 24 24">
    <g transform="translate(659 4098.5)">
      <path d="M19,13H13v6H11V13H5V11h6V5h2v6h6Z"/>
    </g>
  </svg>
</div>

Example #2 (with default fill)

index.html in our source.

<div>
  <!-- full path will be ~assets/icons/md-add.svg -->
  <svg class="icon-size14" icon="md-add" fill></svg>
</div>

index.html with replaced icons.

<div>
  <svg class="icon-size14" viewBox="659 4098.5 24 24">
    <g transform="translate(659 4098.5)">
      <path fill="#123456" d="M19,13H13v6H11V13H5V11h6V5h2v6h6Z"/>
    </g>
  </svg>
</div>

IMPORTANT!

Sorry, but order of attributes in the icon placeholder is strict in a sense, that

• icon must be at the end
• fill is optional and must be the very last attribute after icon.

Valid

<div>
  <svg icon="md-add"></svg>
  <svg class="icon-size14" icon="md-add"></svg>
  <svg class="icon-size14" icon="md-add" fill></svg>
  <svg icon="md-add" fill></svg>
  <svg *ngIf="test" class="icon-size14" icon="md-add" fill></svg>
</div>

Invalid

<div>
  <svg icon="md-add" class="icon-size14"></svg>
  <!-- This will work, but without default fill -->
  <svg fill icon="md-add"></svg>
  <!-- This will not work -->
  <svg *ngIf="test" icon="md-add" class="icon-size14"></svg>
</div>
